From the recording Salt Life (Featured Unreleased Song )
Lyrics
I met her at the beach
She was a sunset girl so sweet
She had long blonde hair and a pretty smile
I was a country boy born and bred
From my cowboy boots to my head
And we sat down on the beach
And we talked for a while
As I leaned in for a kiss
She said boy, you're such a mess
Before we do this
There's something, you should know
I'm all about the salt life
I don't like big trucks
I love my toes in the sand
Are you that kind of man
Yeah, I don't drink beer with the fellas
I like little drinks with umbrellas
Boy I hope you really understand
Yeah
So if you want to be with me
I think that would be nice
Just remember what I say
Yeah
I'm all about the salt life
Mmmm mmmm
I'm all about the salt life
We dated for a while
Then one day I said with a smile
Girl, will you please marry me
To my surprise she said yes
So as I leaned in for a kiss
She said boy, you're such a mess
Before we do this
There's something, you should know
Yeah, I'm all about the salt life
I don't like big trucks
I love my toes in the sand
Are you that kind of man
Yeah, I don't drink beer with the fellas
I like little drinks with umbrellas
Boy I hope you really understand
Yeah
So if you want to be with me
I think that would be nice
Just remember what I say
Yeah
I'm all about the salt life
Mmmm mmmm
I'm all about the salt life
Got a call from Mom and dad
Daddy's health is going bad
We had to leave the beach and move on up to Tennessee
We've spent twenty years in this one horse town
And as I helped her feed those cows
She turned and she said these words to me
Yeah I'm not about the salt life
I really like big trucks
I don't need my toes in the sand
Yeah, I really do love our land
I like to drink beer with the fellas
I don't like drinks with umbrellas
Boy I hope you really understand
So if you want to be with me
I think that would be nice
Just remember what I say
Yeah
I'm not about the salt life
Mmmm mmmm mmm
Yeah I'm not about the salt life
Yeah
I'm not about the salt life
Yeah
